-In the first

-Act, a United States statute, with a corresponding international legal
-reference to anticircumvention laws enacted pursuant to the 1996 WIPO treaty
-and any similar laws.  Lawyers outside the United States have worried that a
-United States statutory reference could be read as indicating a choice for
-application of United States law to the license as a whole, which of course
-was not our intention.  Further research has caused us to doubt the view that
-only one or the other paragraph of section 3 will typically be effective in a
-country that has enacted an anticircumvention law.  Moreover, we believe that
-several national anticircumvention laws have been or will be structured more

+First, GPLv3\S3\P1 declares that no GPL'd program is part of an effective
+technological protection measure, regardless of what the program does.  Early
+drafts of GPLv3\S3\P1 referred directly to the DMCA, but the final version
+instead includes instead an international legal reference to
+anticircumvention laws enacted pursuant to the 1996 WIPO treaty and any
+similar laws.  Lawyers outside the USA worried that a USA statutory reference
+could be read as indicating a choice for application of USA law to the
+license as a whole.  While the FSF did not necessarily agree with that view,
+the FSF decided anyway to refer to the WIPO treaty rather than DMCA, since
+several national anticircumvention laws were (or will likely be) structured
+more similarly to the anticircumvention provisions of the DMCA in their
+implementation of WIPO\@.  Furthermore, the addition of ``or similar laws''
+provides an appropriate catch-all.
 
-The second paragraph of section 3 declares that no GPL'd program is part of
-an effective technological protection measure, regardless of what the program
-does. Ill-advised legislation in the United States and other countries has
-prohibited circumvention of such technological measures. If a covered work is
-distributed as part of a system for generating or accessing certain data, the
-effect of this paragraph is to prevent someone from claiming that some other
-GPL'd program that accesses the same data is an illegal circumvention.
-
-we now state more precisely that a conveying party waives the power to forbid
-circumvention of technological measures only to the extent that such
-circumvention is accomplished through the exercise of GPL rights in the
-conveyed work. We have made two changes in the disclaimer of intention
-regarding limitations on the design and use of the work. First, we make clear
-that the referenced ``legal rights'' are specifically rights arising under
-anticircumvention law.  Second, we now refer to the conveying party's rights
-in addition to third party rights, as in some cases the conveying party will
-also be the party legally empowered to enforce or invoke rights arising under
-anticircumvention law.
+Furthermore, GPLv3\S3\P2 states precisely that a conveying party waives the
